I'm back at Micro Center. Everyone wanted to see my list on how to build a PC, so that's what we're gonna do today. This is everything you need to build a PC and we're gonna go through each one and show you the different options. The first thing you're gonna need is a CPU. The CPU is like the brain of the computer. I have this brand called Ryzen, it's been pretty good so far. So when you get your CPU, you're gonna need a CPU cooler. The cooler is gonna keep the CPU cool while it's doing all the work. Once again, there's lots of options, but I got the one with the screen because I thought it looked cute. I don't know if it makes it cooler or not. So this is the motherboard, what this is basically is the heart of the board. Everything that's important is gonna connect to this and somehow work together. And girls, they had a lot of purses you can choose from. One of the important things you need is something called RAM. RAM is the short-term memory of your computer. I bought mine because they matched. One of the most important things is gonna be your GPU. Basically, know if you're ugly on the computer, you're gonna look ugly on the computer. These are like the makeup artists, they make everything look nice. And girls, some of these makeup artists are pretty pricey. But worth it. Now I'm gonna show you my favorite part, which is gonna be the computer case. The case, this is your designer purse, ladies. This is gonna hold everything that you need. When I bought this one, but in purple, people were really mad. Did the purple case make my computer faster? No. Did I pay more because it was pretty? Absolutely. We're not done yet. We need three more things. Something else you're gonna need is called a PSU, it's the power supply. The PSU is the sugar daddy. That's paying all the electricity bills. So all these little parts can do their job. One of the last things you're gonna need is your case fan. You're basically the ceiling fans of your computer. Don't need nothing having a heat stroke over here. The last thing you're gonna need is some storage. The storage is gonna be like the junk drawer of your house. I bought the two terabyte one because I don't know what a terabyte is and two sounds better than one. This is my friend Evan. He's gonna show us the most expensive build versus the most cheapest build you can do at Micro Center. So he built the highest quality gaming build that you can do for the best price. So if you want to do a budget build with good quality, the cheapest you can do here is around $1600. Which honestly, that's pretty fair. So yeah, once again, we love Micro Center. Talk to y'all later. Bye.
